Child Killed By Klevator. Columbia, July 1. ? I Bernard Hender son. five years old. who lived with his parents near Ea stover. was crushed to death hy an elevator in the Union Na tional Hank building this morning at 11 ;.'*<> o'clock. The jflcetdent occurred as the eleva tor in the east, shaft was approaching the seoml floor, the little fellow and his mother being passengers. The tot lost his balance, his head being caught between the floor of the elevator and the shaft. A i>art of the skull was torn way and death came Instantly. Another tragic feature of the aoeJ dnt was the fact that the boy's moth er. Mrs. Itosa Henderson, was a wit ness to the accident and in H;ilte of her frnntle effort to clutch the falling boy and ?d raw him away from impending death she was forced to witness the tragic fate of her little son.

BEAR TRAPS FOR BURGLARS Brooklyn Man Braved Consequence* of Weil-Known Old Adage, With Gratifying Result. A Mr. Cugan of the Williamsburg section of - Brooklyn, after being vis ited by burglars ten times, decided to depend no longer on Commissioner Knrlght. He set a bear trap Inside a window of his home and caught a bur glar In It, the New York Herald states. That burglar, It may easily be lmaf% Ined, . will never try housebreaking again. It Is one thing to get caught at the crime in the ordinary way, to be taken to a comfortable police sta tion, to be released on ball easily jumped, to be convicted even, and sent to a prison where there are good food and motion pictures. But It Is quite another thing for the criminal to feel the Iron jaws of a bear trup close on his leg. A bear trap does not coddle or release on bond. Unfortunately, every householder cannot safely set a bear trap for burglars. He might accidentally catch himself or his wife or the children or the dog. It It were not for that the whole town might well turn trapper. Electrified. A third of the farm land 4ln Sweden now uses electricity for power. Farm ers over there are beginning to make Inquiries about electrically-propelled plows and harrows. Many of them use electric saws to cut their firewood and lumber. Some even have electric elevators that lift whole wagon loads of hay and grain to the mow. Swedish government officials pre dict it'll only be a few years until practically their whole country will be on an electrical basis. Where "does the power come from? Usually, large water-power plants. Hut many Swedish farmers daiu Hinall streams and use the falling water to generate their own. A tip there for American farmers, remarks the Chicago Evening Post. Personal Interest. Mr. Dunn stood up in court, charged with disorderly conduct, his head swathed In bandages, and demanded a trial by Jury. "It's only a minor offense," advised the Judge. "Why not plead guilty, pay a small fine and get It over?" "No, Judge," replied Mr. Dunn de terminedly. "I want a trial by Jury. The last thing I remember was when I was standing percefully on the cor ner and that big guy. wandered along. The next thing was when two doc tors were sewing me up. Unless I have a trial and hear witnesses I nev er will And out what I called the big stiff." Not If He Can Help It Old Tom was a colored Janitor. He OTially was not old, but his slow shuffle at all times had caused the nickname. A few days ago ne was leaning his chin on a broom handle listening to mualc from a phonograph. After a few moments he starfed slowly up the stairs, dragging one foot after the other us though he was al most exhausted. "Tom," inquired his employer, "are you tired?" "Never." he replied, with a drawl, "and 1 ain't never goin? to jjet that way." ? Indianapolis News. Leads in Farm Telephones.
